Pitiful

Whenever I get sick, I am the most pitiful person and so wimpy. I feel helpless, like everyone does, and I hate having to stay in one place for longer than an hour. Comliments of having ADD. *giggle* Well Zac is sick with Bronchitis from what the doctor said this morning. I came home from spending a couple of hours with Red last night, and I see my cute and adorable hubby at the computer. I ask him how he is feeling, and he tells me, "awful". I walked over to him and put my hand on his head and he is burning up. At this point, I'm like, "oh crap" because I don't know what he may have. Munchkin had a fever the day before and had a little fever when I left Red's house last night. I felt really shaky and kind of nauseous, so I went home. But getting home to a hubby who isn't feeling well, just kind of sent my stomach for a turn. When he doesn't feel good, my mercy gift goes into overdrive and starts to worry. Well he took some Tylenol, and he still had a high fever, and then a massive headache, and the cold chill from the fever. Needless to say, he looked a little pitiful. I started to get a little scared because his mom told me when he gets sick, he gets sick fast. I thought he had the beginnings of the Flu and I was not about to get myself into that. He put himself in the spare bed in the office and I took our bed because he didn't want to get me sick. I fell asleep for an hour at a time, woke up every hour to check on him, see how his fever was doing, it hadn't gone down, took more tylenol, and I went back to bed as soon as my stomach started hurting again. I did this from 10:30pm until about 12:30am. Once my stomach finally stopped playing tricks, I told Zac to come to bed with me. I hate sleeping in our bed by myself. I didn't care if I got sick at that point. I just wanted him to be in the same room with me, so that way I could monitor him and his breathing.
Well 10:50 this morning, we were able to get to the doctor. And of course the doctor said that it didn't sound like the flu, but he was going to treat him for Bronchitis. I'm thankful it wasn't the flu. yuck. So Zac and I are at home, and I am trying to convince him to stay in bed...yep, that will never happen. lol.
